Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually a serious situation to address in a motor vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in your fuel tank can cause idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both cases fairly expediently.
Remember though that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one is going to be completely water-logged and unusable.

We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Staines
Now I am not ever excessively hot for doing work on Sundays, and last week was no different. I'd only just left the wife and kids filled with a fantastic lunch made by the better half, and I was on my way to assist a guy after he had filled the incorrect petrol in his uncle's Mercedes SL-Class. He was stationed in Staines thus it wasn't a long time before I got to him. Just as I pulled up behind the car and got out he told me "Praise the Almighty! I had my attention on other considerations and failed to realise I had put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I brought on any harm through running it?" I determined there probably should not be any kind of damage and that I would drain the wrong fuel as quickly as possible. Obviously I got the contaminated fuel drained from the car and filled up with the suitable fuel, and thus another satisfied motorist was able to continue on their traveling without the hassle. The gentleman did not stop thanking me, and this is what makes working on weekends in Surrey just a little bit easier in my opinion!

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?
If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.
Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:
- How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
- Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
- A lot of smoke (more than usual)
- Engine coughing or starting to splutter
- Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
- Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VA receipt.
- Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
- Call us to come out and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.
